Next lot of pics I am trying to show the new LED indictors hasn't really worked but you get the idea

The tears are perfect but I feel I might have to get some Cree led ones for the front as they are only a little be brighter then the LED side lights.

I could swap the side lights but they are a near perfect colour match for the standard xenons

Looks great. 

[Paulbrown]

Cheers

[Wardy]

Yep, very nice.

 

And the indicators do look different to the standard ones in your photos - different light output, so job done

[Paulbrown]

Like I said tho the fronts might need brighter ones just to our shine the side lights

Car looking good. Anymore feedback on the bluefin?

The lower grilles are cheap as chips anyway

[Paulbrown]

I am getting a lower grill this month

[baptistsan]

Thanks for that Paul. An interesting read. Keep thinking about getting mine mapped, so good to read as many owner experiences as possible.

[Paulbrown]

Fresh HD wax and check out dem beads lol

[Paulbrown]

Oh and the line going across bonnet is the phone cable for house not a scratch lol

Which bulbs are you using around your car bud?

I'm about to order those reverse light bulbs, but looking at ordering number plate light bulbs and bulbs for the side lights and indicators all round.

What do you suggest. (Will look around the site also, thanks)

All bulbs I have fitted are cree canbus ones APART from the number plate ones as I got the full plastic number plate surround/holders which have the bulbs in.

They are all on eBay if you have a look for octiava number plate lights they come up I found that far easier then replacing the number plate bulbs so just swapped the whole light

The side lights are 501 canbus Cree ones

The Rev lights are the ones I posted in this thread and I am still well impressed with them

[Paulbrown]

Ok so I have now fitted some more front indictor bulbs and this new super skoda grill

Also managed to get some new seat covers

I am aware it needs a clean but....

[tequilan]

Looking good mate. The front splitter, is it the one that is advertised on a black octavia on fleabay? How did u fit it, just bolt on I guess?

Personally not sure how I feel about seat covers in general but I like the camo look

[Paulbrown]

lol I like the covers

The splitter is one from eBay

Hour tops to fit hardest bit was making so I was happy with it!

Grill looks smart, needs a honeycomb bonnet grill too now though.

I know just need to get the right one for job :-/

[Paulbrown]

Had to replace my 501 leds side lights with some more as the passenger side ones kept going funny and bring up the fault.

All sorted now had to replace both as the colour was well off far whiter then the first lot i fitted.

I have also replaced my front indicators with much brighter ones

So i now have a set of canbus LED indicators for sale soon lol

How has the bonnet / engine cover performed over the last few days of cold weather?
